I've been teaching private music lessons for more than 15 years and have taught students from age 4 to 50.

Instruments: Flute

I started tutoring students on the flute at a very young age and have done it off and on since then. I like to play with students and encourage performances and help with competitions. When I was in school, I competed in solo and ensemble competitions and also performed in All-State Band and other honor bands. I have performed with concert bands, orchestras, ensembles, and marching bands. I love all kinds of music and find a lot of satisfaction in helping students understand the beauty of the flute.

I have a lot of experience with curriculum development. My favorite books to teach from include Accent on Achievement, Alfred's Piano Book series and Essential Elements.

My lessons are very structured in style and format. Scales, exercises and method books will be the basis of every lesson.

As time goes on, I then allow students to pick their own music for us to work in class. Read More
